Slow roasts and long afternoons.
Let the heavy-duty spit motor turn the roast on the nickel-plated arm, or braai across the wide grid. The ember maker keeps fresh coals coming, the warming drawer holds what's ready, and the 220 V light fitting sees you into the evening. Open the lower door and it doubles as a work surface.
Regular painting and maintenance keep the 15-year firebox guarantee valid.

LONG LUNCHES, LATE LIGHT
Some days are made for the spit.
The roast is on the spit, the coals glow underneath and the table under the thatch is filling up. Someone checks the meat, someone brings the salad, and nobody is in a hurry. Built into your braai wall, the 1500 Super Deluxe Spit makes room for long, slow days with friends.
The face-brick wall and chimney, thatch, counters, table, benches, braai fork, food and plants are not included. Plan the flue and clearances with an independent installer.
BUILT FOR LONG SPIT DAYS
Keep the coals coming, and the food warm.
THE GRID
Room for chops, wors and a potjie.
The 1,225 × 550 mm grid comes with grid lifters, and the potjie holder takes a potjie for something slow. Keep the first round in the warming drawer while the next one cooks.
THE BUILD
Heavy steel. Handy details.
Homefires builds the firebox from hot-rolled 3 mm mild steel. Open, the lower door makes a work surface for your tools, and the 220 V light fitting helps once the sun goes down.

GOOD TO KNOW
Plan your setup.
Read your instruction manual before you plan the installation.
What is included?

It comes with a heavy-duty, nickel-plated spit arm, a cooking grid and grid lifters, an ember maker, a warming drawer, an ash pan and ash drawer, a potjie holder, a 220 V light fitting, a spade and a poker. The flue pipe, joining collar and cowl are optional extras, sold separately.
Does it come with a spit motor?
Yes. The braai comes with its heavy-duty spit motor and the spit motor box, plus a heavy-duty, nickel-plated spit arm.
Which fuel can I use?
Wood or charcoal. Burn wood in the ember maker and rake the fresh coals under the spit or the grid as you cook.
How much cooking space is there?
The cooking grid is 1,225 mm wide and 550 mm deep, and grid lifters come with it. The potjie holder takes a potjie for slow cooking, and the warming drawer keeps the first round warm.
Is the flue included?
No. The flue pipe, joining collar and cowl are optional extras, sold separately: add them on this page. Send a photo and measurements for a flue and configuration quote, and we will confirm the right parts for your setup.
Where does the flue connect?
At the flue outlet on top of the hood. The outlet measures 600 × 485 mm. Homefires gives 2.5 m as the minimum chimney height for a proper draw. Ask us about the right height for your roof, and have an independent installer plan the flue route and support.

How do I plan the brick opening?
Start with the instruction manual. These are product dimensions, not a brick opening. Homefires asks for a 20 mm expansion gap between the sides and back of the braai and the brickwork. Allow for insulation and access too, and have an independent installer plan the opening, flue and safe clearances from the actual unit.
Can it go indoors?
Yes. Homefires says the unit may be installed indoors or outdoors. Follow the instruction manual, and have an independent installer plan the chimney, ventilation and safe clearances for your space.
Can I get it in stainless steel?
This listing is the standard braai in black mild steel. Homefires can also make it in 3CR12 steel or 304 stainless steel on special order. Ask us for a quote.
What does the guarantee cover?
Homefires guarantees the firebox for 15 years from the date of purchase, against faulty workmanship or material under normal use. Regular painting and maintenance keep the guarantee valid. Replaceable parts such as the grid, ember maker and ash pan are not covered, nor are rust, water leaks, misuse or installation damage. Ask us for the full terms.
Can you help with my setup?
Yes. Send a photo and measurements for a product and flue configuration quote. Arrange installation with an independent installer.
